Frost of the Soil Conscr- .-vation Service, the 19f3 irrigation ; .season, already under way in Lake County, has a rather grim water supply outlook with fore casts of expected streamflow ranging from 13 to 36 per cent below average. The only bright spot Is the water stored for use by the Lakevicw Water Users As sociation which is assured a good irrigation season this year. March storms, although heavy ai the month's end, produced in sufficient new snow to reduce the huge deficit in the record-low ' ; snowpack. Water content of the mountain snow cover is now only '17 per cent of the April 1 average ' In Lake County. However, mols--s' "tUre in the upper watershed soil mantle is 86 per cent of the total capacity at the Camas Creek . moisturo station and will add to the spring streamflow. Water stored in Drews Valley Reservoir toUils 47,2(10 acre feet, I compared with only 11,800 onl April 1 a year ago. Cottonwood Reservoir held only 900 acre feet last year and now Iwlds 7.20O.

The Senate leader said his per sonal preference was for the state to get by for four years without new (axes but added: "I'm not sure the people want that much of a cut in their services. Asked about the prospect for approval of the increased school aid bills, Burns said flatly: "I think we will either have to levy new taxes or turn them both down." Unruh said he agreed substan tially with Burns' position and said that although it was wise "politically" for the governor to promise no new taxes during the election campaign it probably was a "mistake." "We will either have to go whole hoe or not at all," he said "Unless we face up to an come increase (through new taxes) there will be no increase in expenditures." As possible sources of new in come Unruh reiterated his pre vious suggestions of a larger cigarette tax and licensing night harness racing. Brown promptly Issued h i s strongly-worded statement. I had hoped my position on ax increases during jum was crystal clear by now," he said, "but perhaps I had better repeat it at this time. I promised the people of Call foraia that there would be no new or increased taxes this year, will keep that promise.

UP1) The X-15, opening a new era of scientific probes, set a record for rocket-powered flight Thurs day and look supersonic pictures of the earth. Flying a newly modified X-15, Air Force Maj. Bob Rushworth ran the rocket engine for 136 sec ondsthe longest time yet. The previous record was 127 seconds, 2.07 minutes. Mere seconds of rocket power can make a big uilterence in flight at ultra-sonic speed, space scientists noted. Rushworth's flight was the first test in an advance research pro gram in winch the X-15 will pho tograph the stars, measure mete orites, and investigate infra-red rays while flashing through space. On Thursday's flight, a special Army KC1 camera on tho under side of the X-15's nose snapped a succession ol pictures of the earth 15 miles below. The new camera, with a powerful lens, increases photographic detail by 50 per cent. However, the actual purpose of the Right was to find out what distortion occurs to pictures taken at supersonic speed from shock waves, air flow and other turbulence.
